The team stops alien invaders from hurling NYC into the sun! Back to basics, as they say, w/ expert creators showing why the FF are such fun. Sadly, Sue does get deployed as the ol’ damsel in distress, saved by Mr F’s widget. It swaps her powers w/ Johnny’s—a fun variant on the loss-of-powers trope.
